Music is for listening, not for the watching. So I'd kill anybody trying to sing along with LC anywhere near me. You can do it on encores and Marianne and refrains of Manhattan, but not during the earlier songs and the whole show. Not to mention chatter like we're on the game.

Just spent a lazy morning reading most of the reports on the Ghent concerts. Looks like it was even a better time than previous tours. I have resisted to even listen to one video and I do not intend to eitherl I would prefer wait for the real thing . I have a crap seat twenty rows back (thanks to ticketmaster) for Dublin so I probably will try get near the stage at the end of the concert. Verona will be my night. Paivi, I really loved your photographs, they all look so natural and unrushed and that one of you and Leonard is just fabulous, holding tight to each other.

Tom I absolutely agree with you about someone singing loudly all through the concert, it drives me nuts!!! I just want to immerse myself in Leonards live versions of the songs I love and listen to the fantastic musical arrangements by the band. Yes its fine to sing a chorus of Marianne, Leonard seems to love that but for the rest, I just wish they would shut the f*** up.


Anyways, I am looking forward to September. I thought September 2 years ago in Dortmund, was the last time I would see him and I could live with those memories forever.................... but there is more to come

Looking forward to meeting good friends along the way
